Webmaster Warning - Prideaccess.com

[Pistol]

The gay Yugoslavian network of 41 sites - PRIDEACCESS is comprised almost completely of illegally distributed/unlicensed material from Raging Stallion Studios, Bel Ami, Hot House, Titan, RandyBlue/Maxpixels and Channel 21 Releasing.

This is to name a few that we were able to identify upon first inspection.

This kind of behaviour will not be tolerated and the wheels are already in motion to have the network shut down.

It's therefore recommended that any webmasters sending traffic to this program cease immediately - it's unlikely that you will be getting paid.

Whoa man, you better be 100% sure otherwise this could get deep.

I just hit up Santeria.

Edit: Btw, you say "Yugoslavian" network? Makes me think you have no idea who you're talking about then. As i've said, you better be 100% sure or this could get REALLY deep.

[Sly]

They aren't Yugoslavian. I sent this thread to Santeria as well, he isn't around right now though.

[Spunky]

Hmmm..thanks for the heads up

The domain is registered in Yugoslavia.

[CraK]

The domain is registered in Yugoslavia.

As I see, it is.. but that could be done for various reasons.. as I have my domains under non-US person as well.

Waiting for him to get back and check out the thread.

[Pistol]

Our content is unmistakingly plastered across the network and the same goes for some of our associates.

We certainly didnt license it to whoever is responsible.

[CraK]

I understand your position on this, and i'm not saying you are lying. I am just waiting for Santeria to return and take a look at the thread.

I can't speak for others, but I know that Santeria doesn't have the need, nor the will to take someone else's content, knowingly.. as he has no shortage of money, nor resources to get his own.

We shall see, who's side the mistake was made on, if any.

[Randy]

I know Brian and I know the heads of the studios of most of the movies on the sites. Brian makes some of the highest quality EXCLUSIVE content under his own label. If Brian says he did not liscense then I believe him. Some of the videos are from Big producers and some are only a few months old.

I know for a fact that some of the sites were designed with EXCLUSIVE content from MY own site http://randyblue.com. I shot the photos and have never given anyone permision to use them for their artwork for their tours.

[bhutocracy]

If you are at all involved in the production side of things you'll know how UNRELENTING AND UNMITIGATED the piracy of your movies are. It is constant. You walk into a store and see copies of your DVD's sitting there on the shelf that someone's made a tidy profit on some blank discs. Brian actually walked into a store and grabbed an armful of DVD's off the shelves in front of the stooge behind the register walked out and got the owner on the phone for an earful.. If you don't stand up for your yourself the thieves will walk all over you. It's not as if this is the first AVS/AEN to use pirated DVD content to give to members as pretty much looks to be the case..

You'll have to forgive not giving the benefit of the doubt in yet another case.. although i suppose no one gives a shit and the content will get taken down and everyone forgets... Imagine if pornaccess were using Tawnee Stone videos for fucks sake.

[hman425]

While imitation is the sincerecest form of flattery, Brian at GunzBlaxing and Randy of RandyBlue make some of the finest exclusive content there is...piracy isn't flattery, its unmitagated robbery plain and simple

Taken words out of my mouth.. this must be a mistake..I know Santeria as well and he is a honnest webmaster..

[Pistol]

We shall see, who's side the mistake was made on, if any.

The extend of the piracy covering MULTIPLE studios in MULTIPLE websites doesn't fall into the "mistake" category.

Negligence perhaps.

[procam]

I simply cannot believe that ANY of u with an ounce of sense would believe this to be a MISTAKE - Santeria has been moody - shifty and totally not acting like himself since this whole prideaccess project began.........
He got greedy and tempermental I posted about this before.....
and now hes pretty well nailed for theft here by someone other than myself and u people INSIST on calling him an "HONEST WEBMASTER"
I got mad luv for a lotta the webmasters involved in this thread but god damit wake up and smell the coffee -
Santeria has been in the biz long enuf to KNOW wtf he was selling - rest assured no "mistake" has been made.

IMHO this webmaster went Rogue when Prideaccess came about...........
and this just PROVED my opinion.

Now mail my god damn check to me that yer holding and close that fawkin site please before u get yerself in more damn troubles I am just having a vision of Miss ChiChi going to Uruguay to hunt his biz partner........

I HATE to say I told yall so but........ I told ya!

[jimmyf]

oh my oh my

looks like someone really fucked up

[angelsofporn]

na man..he was bitching to me last month about how much they were having to spend on content. He's not dealing in stolen content

[JFK]

oh my oh my

looks like someone really fucked up

no shit and still no response..............

[Nysus]

I posted this on another board, a gay webmaster board, I won't post the link, but here's what I stated... it's a board where one of the partners who's nickname is Santeria who partnered who with www.AdultSeal.com (who are also in big trouble for stolen content) usually posts quite often and has really shocked everyone in the gay market industry that this has happened.

Anyways, here are my posts;

"Sorry to post to another board, but I believe it to be highly relevant and important..

http://www.gfy.com/showthread.php?t=483137 [this thread]

I also just got off of the phone with someone who's close with everyone involved, the top site owners, and it was confirmed as well.

The network will likely be down within the week, and anyone who has an archive, I'd strongly suggest taking down your links, because you LIKELY WON'T GET ANY CHECKS.

I'm not stating anything about Santeria, though there is no way he didn't know that 1,000s of gigabytes of content were stolen, unless he didn't actually look at any of the sites.

I don't know what affect this will have on Santeria, but it's fucked up, and not good for him.

I know this is all true, so I'm just wondering what Santeria's response will be, and if he'll stay in the gay market, or the adult market, after doing such a thing. I was about to start a trade with his site as well, I can't anymore though. He certainly could be liable.. When Titan sues they win $20,000 damages PER PICTURE infringement. Damages for what they all stole (including AdultSeal.com which are being gone after as well for a lot of stolen content) will be in the millions.

Just to add, everyone seemed to have great conversions; they likely just wanted everyone to keep sending their traffic.

Matt"

And the last one I made;

"This is the post from GFY that Pistol Media made;

[This was the original thread that Pistol Media posted in this thread, removed it simply to remove the duplication; unneeded]

And by the way, the person I spoke to uses the top law firm in the US, as do most of the other companies, and everything has already been checked out and all of their sites / content has been copied / saved as evidence.

People are going down it seems.

I believe Santeria is only 20 years old. I'm 22 myself, and I've done some stupid things, but never in business, and never anything unethical; yes, I stole chocolate bars when I was 13, but that's a little different.

Santeria is also in the US I believe, where most of the stolen content providers are from, and they will pin this on whoever they can get their hands on. I wonder how 7 companies (plus the undiscovered illegally distributed/unlicensed material from companies) will divide up whatever they can get.

I know ICANN is quite responsive to legal pressure from top US lawyers as well, especially since these lawyers have specialists they go to for all domain related issues, where they could go to court, and have it court ordered that all domains owned and related to the people be taken from them, etc..

This is fucked up. On a jokingly side note, I highly doubt they have any 2257 information... Maybe Santeria's in hiding, or in jail, or in a different country now.

He could have made $100k with the month they were open with all of the top traffic MGP / TGP sites having an archive to promote it.

Did anyone actually get money from them yet?

Matt"

Two people who promoted PrideAccess.com archives posted on the other board so far, and they haven't been paid and they would be two of the bigger promoters (highest traffic), meaning, noone will likely be paid; I could be wrong, but with current situation it doesn't seem like they'd be ethical in that sense; whether Santeria has control over content or the money, which I'm not sure, it is either him or AdultSeal.com who partnered on this 'venture' ... Ugh.. This makes me feel sick to my stomache.

Hope this was informative.

Matt

[FilthyRob]

I like that icon

[Nysus]

To clarify things after talking to ONE of the owners of AdultSeal.com (Thy), that AdultSeal.com isn't in a partnership with PrideAccess.com, but Thy himself is in a partnership with PrideAccess.com, providing the technical support for the site is what he's saying; EDIT: Thy says he didn't provide technical support, though that is what Santeria had told me before.

It also may have been miscommunicated that AdultSeal.com was in trouble for stolen content as he has told me and has available all licences for all content on AdultSeal.com; so apologies for stating that, though it's what I had heard myself.

Matt

[FUCK J0EL]

Wow...sorry to hear this and I hope all this will get solved for everyones case !

I just want to make sure that no one confuses PrideAccess with PornAccess
2 Different programs, 2 different companies...Not to be associated.

[123Jason]

Well hopefully by now everyone who may have had a doubt as to the validity of Brian's claim has accepted fact and truth. In the event there are any who have not, let me assure you that the content is, in fact, stolen...from a number of very long standing, highly esteemed, top quality production companies...including ours.

Who knew when I came in this morning that the day would take me here?

Who knew when I came in this morning that the day would take me here?

Id say that was cause to go home and shower thoroughly ;)

Hows you and the hubby?

This whole thing sucks and i genuinly cant beleive people are defending this theif based on him being 'an ok guy' LOL

Like I needed another reason to go home and shower???

Both the man and I are doing well. Thank you much for asking. Hopefully you and yours are likewise.

Do not underestimate the power of charm on the multitudes of those unwilling to accept the responsibility and consequence of maintaining their own character.

[QuaWee]

Sanateria = timsmovies.com, right?

[candyflip]

Sanateria = timsmovies.com, right?

So much for those submit passes

[procam]

That is all water under the bridge now - he disrespected me - and all of you with this stolen content and I call on you all to do the right thing Kill those trades with
http://www.lovethecock.com
http://www.skeezy.com
http://www.igotgays.com/main.shtml

If you continue to send him traffic - you continue to support and assist a thief - do the right thing- it may sting for a few days but you know what there are plenty of other traffic sources available.
This theft issues been confirmed plenty now on GFY thread and it is without a doubt in mind that Santeria knew whos content this was and did knowingly and willfully engage in this activity.

I will remind those of you who made cute comments on the last thread about this guy -- I told him when he verbally assaulted me
" A wise man once told me - be careful how you treat people on your way up,. you may have to face them on your way DOWN"

The time is at hand.....

[benoitlc666]

All I can say is that Gay webmasters have had their shit together in terms of legality long before straight programs.
If Brian says his content is being used illegally, then it is, quite simple.

[QuaWee]

i hope Sanateria isnt involved, he seems like a nice guy

[European Lee]

Btw. Sorry to hear that they're stealing content, but as I can see they're not from Yugoslavia.

[diggz]

Wow, this is crazy. Hopefully this is just a misunderstanding ...unfortunately right now it looks like everything is leaning heavily against Tim. It would be nice to see his side of the story.

[Randy]

I for one would be curious to hear his side of the story as well.

[Nysus]

I talked to Santeria and asked him if I could post my talk on ICQ with him;

"we're still trying to figure out how these movies got in our system... we have 80 dvd liscenses, i think we're going to shut down for a day or two and make sure all these movies are removed"

"yeah, one of our employees used the wrong dvds, we're still trying to figure out who... they were buying dvds before we bought the liscenses to make sure they were good and we're thinking they put the wrong ones up... we'll post something when we know for sure though

we spent a lot of money on these liscenes, we obviously didn't do this on purpose... there's no way i would condone stealing content"

... was Santeria's ICQ message to me; either way, if it was them or not, they're still liable.

And something he's missing is, it's not simply a matter of DVDs, content would of had to of been downloaded from many different content producer's sites (some of which don't even license out their content) and then put it online.

It's hard to know what to believe.

Matt

[jigg]

classic "I dunno" excuse

he isn't here posting why?

and how about post where he bought the licenses from, copies of sales and such?

What of the Randy Blue content, he bought that on DVD too and "mistakenly" put it on the site?

Whatever

[Matt 26z]

So in other words he's saying he bought DVD's to check out their quality before even asking if licensing was available. Then he accidentally put those DVD's online.

That sounds like total BS to me.

[Pistol]

Gigs upon gigs of absolute premium, recent release, unlicensed content across MULTIPLE sites.

That's one hell of a mistake.

[procam]

He is attempting to cool the situation off from afar by having someone post on his behalf at GWC and he did shutdown prideaccess temp....
http://gaywebmasterchat.com/viewtopi...=3305&start=15
Theres the latest on his alleged words........

Tho Shalt not STEAL --
And these guys continue to defend him as pistol said gigs and gigs of content and randy blue stuff stolen and other stuff too hmmm mistake NOT.....

[THY]

its like Nysus said.

i just checked myself and found 15 dvds - (5 scenes each average)

its not strange to get dvds before buying the licenses, thing is we fucked up by getting random dvds when we started, its our mistake not trying to hide from this, as you can see we have taken the site down ourselves now, so we can make sure all the content without licenses is removed etc...

As tim said we have 80-90 licenses for PA.
and in total may be a bit more than 100 dvds.

anyways, of course we are really sorry and it was never the intention, we dont need to use others content.
i cant say more than we are sorry and already did something about this.

Thanks Jigg and all for the headsup
